Mr. Paul Sharpe representing the Broadmoor Corporation comes before the Board
requesting the rezoning from Agricultural (A) to Residential (R-15) of two
parcels of land of rectangular shape, containing 24.66 acres, located au the
eastern terminus of Bondurant Drive, and being south of Stonehenge (Sec. B)
Subdivision. Refer to Tax Map Sec. 26-8 (1) parcels 3 & 4 (Sheet 7).
Dr. Walter Gannon, President of the Stonehenge Civic Association, came before the
Board to express opposition to the rezoning of this area because: (1) there
presently exists only one road to ingress and egress from Stonehenge. He stated
that this rezoning would allow 75-100 new cars using this one road, the
residents would be subjected to the influx of construction vehicles and materials,
children's safety would be endangered because of the rolling topography, and it
would allow 200 more houses in the Stonehenge Subdivision which presently has
only 150; and (2) consistency of the neighborhood development could go down
because of the R-15 zoning when most houses in the Subdivision presently meet
the R-25 and some the R-40 zoning. He stated also that at the present time
ihe road is 60 foot wide and the developer plans to have only a 50 foot wide road
in the new development. He stated that while the developer's motive may be noble
now by saying that he is actually building higher specifications than that stated
in R-15 zoning, he could possibly sell at a later date to a developer whose motive
may not be so noble. He also added that the present schools in that area are
overcrowded and this would add to the present dilemma. He stated that he realized
this was prime land and the development of same was inevitable but that the
Stonehenge Civic Association would like two restrictions placed if the developer
was allowed to start construction: (1) that all houses would be R-25 zoning,
and (2) that another access into the area be made.
Mr. Krepela recommended to Mr. Sharpe that he thought it would be best if he and
the Civic Association met and tried to iron out the differences and see if they
could reach a mutual agreement. Mr. Sharpe stated that Mr. Pinchbeck had already
talked with them and nothing was actually solved. Mr, Krepela indicated that he
did not want to make a decision today for or against the request. He stated that
he felt it would be best for all concerned if such a meeting should take place
between the residents of Stonehenge and the developer. He stated that the
developer should check into the land bordering on the southern portion of the land
to see if Chesterfield Land and Timber would grant an easement or if another
solution could be worked out. He stated the zoning was not what concerned him as
much as the area having only one entrance. On motion of Mr. Krepela, seconded by
Mr. O'Neill, it is resolved that this case be deferred for two weeks to allow the
parties to try and resolve their differences.
Ayes: Mr. Horner, Mr. Apperson, Mr. Krepela and Mr. O'Neill.
74S050 i
Mr. Charles Cockran representing V.I.P. Properties Corporation requests that the

Farms (Sheet 9).

Office to be there, otherwise, with B-2 zoning, a service station could possibly

mentioned parcel be rezoned to B-1 subject to the conditions imposed by the
Planning Commission recorded with the papers of this Board.

differences. Mr. Ty Winder, President of the Bon Air Community Association,
appeared before the Board in order to express his opposition and presented the
Board with 62 signed petitions from the residents of the area. He stated that
they did not want the mass of people that this. development would bring. He also
stated that schools are overcrowded now and that the situation would be alot
worse and also that the traffic on Robious Road would be unreal and the lives of
those children in the area would be endangered. Mr. John Jansen of the Greenfield
Subdivision also expreSsed his opposition by stating the safety of children in tha~i
area was his main concern. Mr. George Conner of Greenfield stated that he had ~
selected this area in which to live because there were no condominiums but since
that time two developments had been constructed. He stated that he was not
opposed to development in that area but he was opposed to condominiums.
Mrs. Angela Leary stated that she was also a resident of Greenfield and the traffic!
and the safety of the children were her main objection to the development of the
condominiums. She stated that she was aware o£ the alternate route that was
being planned but she stated people did not have to use this alternate route and
that they would probably t~y to use the shorter route. She also stated that there
had been an accident involving a bus and a truck on this road and she could
certainly see the possibility of such accidents re-occuring.
Mr. Krepela inquired of Mr. Willey if he had reall~ tried to take care of the
objections to this development. He stated that he had tried but that he could
not help all the people in the area. He stated that he did distribute form letter~i
asking the residents to get in touch with him if they had objections. Mr. Horner
stated that he felt some of this was the Highway Department's fault as they were
not taking care of the County's problem roads. Mr. Krepela stated that he
would recommend to the developer that he and the residents objecting to the
development meet and come to an agreement. Upon motion of Mr. Krepela, seconded
by Mr. Myers, it is hereby resolved and approved that action on this rezoning
case be deferred for four weeks.
Ayes: Mr. Horner, Mr. Apperson, Mr. Krepela and Mr. O'Neill.

Reconvening:
Mr. George Warner introduced himself and a group of people from the Bon Air
Heights area. He stated that in April, 1973, he along with those persons present
and others had voted for a Sewer Bond with the understanding that their area
would be one of the first (within the same year) to get sewerage. He stated
that it was his understanding that some of this money was now being diverted to
Brandermill. He inquired of the Board if this was true. Mr. Horner stated that
this was not the case. Mr. Warner stated that this was his understanding from
Mr. Krepela. Mr. Krepela stated that he had said that if monies from the Bond
Issue were being diverted to Brandermill then they would run short for the other
areas. Mr. Warner stated that if it was true he did not feel this was fair becaus~
people were not living there yet and because the Bond Issue was for those persons
who voted on it in that area a year ago. Mr. Painter stated that the problem
had been with the City of Richmond not carrying the sewer lines as far as they
said they would and also they had not been able to obtain the easements necessary.
Mr. Horner stated that he thought they had not gotten the 70% needed either.
Mr. Warner stated that they had the 70%. He stated that the people who need
sewerage were not getting it.
Mr. Krepela inquired of Mr. Painter if the bids had been let. Mr. Painter
stated that they had not but that they would be ready to go in about two months.
Mr. Warner stated tha$ it was his and the group's feeling that because their
homes were not $50-75,000 homes they were being by passed. Mr. Horner stated that
the County had just received money from the Federal Government for sewerage.
Mr. Krepela stated that the only reason the County had received this money was
because the Water Control Board had no other place to put it and it was either
do this or lose it. Mr. Hornet stated that this was not true as the City of
Richmond and Henrico County had also wanted this money. Mr. Krepela stated
that they may have wanted it but that they had no grant in the mill applying for
it.
Mr. Warner stated that he was here to find out when they could expect sewer.
Mr. Painter again stated that the easements were holding them up. Mr. Krepela
stated that Mr. Painter should start finding out for sure about the easements
and if no other way exist for the right-of-way, condemnation proceedings should
be started. Mr. Painter stated that he could possibly have the condemnations
at the next regular meeting and bids would be let in two months if no other
higher priority was placed on his Department.
Mr. Krepela stated that Mr. Horner told him he had better tow-the-line or no
sewerage would ever get in Midlothian. Mr. Homer stated that he had said some-
thing to this effect but it was because Mr. Krepela did not take any interest in
the rest of the County and would not cooperate with the other Board members.
Mr. Warner stated that Mr. Krepela had not been in office 10 years so he did not
feel it was all his fault. He stated there had to have been some cooperation
somewhere along the line.
Mr. Horner stated that the next meeting would show some progress towards this
sewer problem for this area. Mr. Krepela stated that he saw no need for another
resolution as he felt the other still held firm. Mr. Warner and his group went
away feeling a little more satisfied then from previous meetings. Mr. Warner
stated he would be back at the next meeting to see the progress.
On motion of Mr. Apperson, seconded by Mr. O'Neill, it is resolved that the County
Engineer be authorized to run a Test Case of Aerial Mapping that would cover the
Robious Road, Route 60, Stonehenge and Falling Creek area. This project shall
not exceed $4,000.
Ayes: Mr. Horner, Mr. Myers, Mr. Apperson, Mr. Krepela and Mr. O'Neill.
On motion of Mr. Horner, seconded by Mr. Apperson, it is resolved that this Board
reject the bids of Photo Science, Inc. in the amount of $377,842 and Survey and
Design, Inc. in the amount of $417,123.20.
Ayes: Mr. Horner, Mr. Myers, Mr. Apperson, Mr. Krepela and Mr. O'Neill.
Mr. Apperson again introduces to this Board his Disclosure Ordinance and asks
that July 24, 1974, at 7:00 p.m. be set for Public Hearing. Mr. Myers stated
that he did not feel this Disclosure Ordinance was fair to all concerned. He
stated that it was not fair for candidates for public office to disclose their
assets after election. The candidates could use the incumbent's disclosure
against him in the election and the incumbent had no recourse. He stated that if
the candidates were forced to disclose all assets and liabilities during the
election campaign it'would be different. Mr. Krepela stated that this was made
mainly for zoning cases, not basically to find out how much each member'of the
Board owned and owed. Mr. Rudy stated that it was basically to find out the
material, financial interest of those concerned. Mr. Krepela stated that
consultants do not have to have a disclosure statement so why would the Board
members. Mr. Rudy stated that if the employing body put a pre-requisite to the
effect that the employed consultants need disclosure statements, it would be
perfectly legal. Mr. Myers stated that he could not get some members on the
Bi-Centennial Committee because of this. Mr. O'Neill said he had the same
problem. On motion of Mr. Apperson, seconded by Mr. Krepela, it is resolved
that this Ordinance be introduced at this time for a Public Hearing at 7:00 p.m.,
July 24, 1974. The vote being taken was as follows: Ayes: Mr. Apperson and
Mr. Krepela; Nays: Mr. Horner and Mr~ Myers; Abstention: Mr. O'Neill. After
a brief discussion, Mr. O'Neill reconsidered and voted against the disclosure
ordinance because he felt the Board members were playing dirty politics, he felt
the people he represented had confidence in his honesty and integrity and he did
not support this ordinance unless it was statewide for candidates as well as
incumbents and General Assembly members, etc., and he felt that it should be in
total form as to assets and liabilities.
On motion of Mr. Myers, seconded by Mr. O'Neill, it is resolved that this Board
accepts the offer of Charles T. Clements, et al., set forth in this proposal
dated April 24, 1974, to purchase 115 acres, more or less, fronting Route 604
and Route 603, in Huguenot District, Powhatan County, Virginia, on the terms
and conditions therein for the purchase price of $85,000.00, exclusive of the
10% commission due W. B. F. Johnson to be paid separately.
Be it further resolved, that the Commonwealth's Attorney petition the Circuit
Court of Chesterfield County, Virginia, for appointment of counsel to examine
this title and make report of same to the Court.
Ayes: Mr. Horner, Mr. Myers, Mr. Apperson, Mr. Krepela and Mr. O'Neill.
